it's probably because they scan your codebase/directory for context reading files, searching for references, building understanding of your project. The UI versions skip that.
it does, but i’ve found it to be buggy, got hung up when that directory was not assigned (poor ux), and just crash often. i’ve found the cli much more performant.

I don't know why, but Claude and Codex CLI feel significantly slower for me than the UI versions.

Claude Code Desktop does the same.
